Philadelphia Eagles vs Las Vegas Raiders: Bold predictions for Week 7

Another bold prediction for the Philadelphia Eagles offense in Vegas.

Jalen Hurts throws two touchdowns and runs for another.

While someone who hasn’t seen any of the games might be fooled by some of Jalen Hurts’ stats, everyone watching them knows that the numbers don’t tell the entire tale. Some of his best work has come in garbage time when the defense takes its foot off the gas, but the tide should turn here, even if the turn is minimal.

QB1 failed to throw a touchdown in Week 2 versus the San Francisco 49ers or in Week 5 versus the Carolina Panthers, but that was because he had one in each game called back because of a penalty. He’s found the end zone at least once in each of Philly’s other four games.

Expect that trend to continue. Hurts gets his usual touchdown pass along with another that comes from one of those plays the Eagles typically miss the bulls-eye on. You already know how dangerous he is with his legs.

Don’t adjust anything. This isn’t a drill. You’ve read this correctly. QB1 accounts for 21 points in this one. Here are a few theories about what to expect when Philly’s defense is on the field.
